We love the Y! Nice staffing and clean space and alot to do here. For 101 a month it’s not bad. And u can cancel anytime

Scott Wojtas

Risa at the front is great. She gave me thorough tour and welcomes me by name! I never feel the gym is too crowded and I have all the equipment I need to stay lean and strong. Great staff and experience! It is in need of a face-lift and some of the equipment is outdated. However, I'm not deducting a star because I know construction is to begin soon!

Johnny L

Excellent facility; mega clean-conscious; high-quality/eclectic equipment (steam room, sauna, weight room, etc.). Most of all - staff were super nice and really wonderful. 10/10 for the facility, 12/10 for the staff. 100% recommend if you’re ever in Nashville!

Timothy Horne

Great gym with lots of equipmemt and options. They have the pool, basketball, raquet ball, classes, and all kinds of workout equipmemt.. its great. They even have a sauna and steam room if you want to use it. Overall great gym.

Overall it’s an excellent facility. Spacious, well-run, clean and friendly staff. It also has additional enjoyable events like ballroom dancing classes. I particularly enjoy lap swimming and ballroom dance classes. I really appreciate this Y providing clean towels and ample shower stalls. And parking is so convenient. It’s one of the amazing Y’s. It’s worth Five stars!

Adam Milner

The downtown Y is an awesome gym with all the equipment, classes, and amenities needed, in addition to an amazing community resource!! The staff is always warm, welcoming, and cheerful!

William Carroll

I had a great experience from the time I entered the door. Great and friendly customer service. The facility was clean and spacious. There was a lot of equipment and I didn't have to compete for it.

stabby sox

Polite front desk personnel. They do not do day passes for out-of-towners. FYI!

Demetria Nicholls

Everyone who works there is so welcoming and kind. Childcare goes above and beyond to care for your baby, and the facilities are in top condition!

Christopher Catallo

I was referred by a friend to the YMCA of Middle Tennessee. From the first time I walked in to check out the downtown Middle Tennessee YMCA, the people were wonderful. I was greeted kindly and offered a tour. I was given the full explanation of membership options and told how to join. Joining the club has been a great experience at the downtown location and looking forward to using the other local Y's, as part of our membership. The cardio, weights, gyms and pools, are all available, clean, and open during the hours my family and I need. The parking during busy hours is a slight challenge but the staff has done a nice job of directing members to the overflow lot, which is easily accessible. I would highly recommend the Y!

Holland Whitaker

I just joined the Y and I already love my experience so far. The gym is spacious with a wide variety of equipment and different areas to work out / warm up / stretch / etc. I love the commitment to cleanliness and sanitation in the shared areas. I can't wait to explore other amenities the club has to offer in the future.

Peter

Nothing to knock you off your seat. However, with the scarcity of gyms in the Nashville metro area this one is considered one of the better ones. The best part about this gym is the location and the open space. They have been skimming down on the equipment in the past month for some reason.

Janine Gaten

Great location. Nice equipment. Clean and friendly staff. Free classes. Never have to wait to use equipment or swim lane.

Ruth Hill

Diversity in every sense. I never feel out of place at the Y. There is an ambience of kindness and community that makes me look forward to going even when I am busy with life.

jarell forbes

I like the various options of different types of exercising possibilities. The indoor pool is great for an after workout cooldown lap session.

Jesse

Giant gym with only four squat racks. 60% of the gym layout is taken up by mostly unused cardio machines. People are always standing around frustrated waiting to use the weight racks. The gym should be a stress reliever not a source of stress. Coming here feels like sitting in traffic

Leah Streeval

I absolutely love the Y. I was intimidated at first but now it feels like a second home. The staff are so incredibly kind and helpful. I've tried classes and have always had a great experience. There is a wide variety of equipment an it always feel kept up well. They have done a wonderful job making the gym feel safe and clean during the Covid-19 pandemic. If you're looking for a gym where you feel comfortable, accepted, and pushed to do you best, the Y is for you!

M. Fowner

Nice front desk staff and fun instructors, alot of equipment and classes to particpate in. Parking can be a challenge, even with paid parking in the garage. But overall, great place to get your sweat on!

Holly Kellar

If you like old-school Step Aerobics, Tim's Advanced Step class is THE BEST!

Christopher Henwood

The facilities are excellent and very clean. The staff is very friendly and super helpful.

Andrew Goodwyn

I love the Y. The staff are always very kind and helpful. The downtown location is the more intimidating YMCAs though because there are a lot of really in shape younger people lol. Everyone is nice though ya know. When you buy a membership you get access to all the YMCAs in Middle TN for only $40 bucks. You really can't beat that. Oh, and they have an awesome steam room, pool, sauna, and well equipped weight room and other stuff I haven't explored.

Jana Mattox

We are living in Nashville temporarily (downtown) & decided to join this gym. Our experience has been amazing. The entire location is pristine & up to date. Every staff member we have ever interacted with has been very friendly & helpful. Our favorite aspect though is the childcare area- our 6 year old stays with the staff while we workout (5 to 6 times a week) & all of the people in there are amazing! She has so much fun with them that she actually gets mad when we come to pick her up, and she asks each day what time we are heading there. It makes things so much easier on us when we can workout with a clear mind, knowing she is in good hands. We really love this place and recommend it to everyone.

Sarah D. E. Staples

I love the Downtown Y! It has a consistently positive atmosphere, from the staff at the door who greet you with a smile at 5am, to the fellow members on the gym floor who stop for a chat. The Y is really about community, which takes it a step above the standard gym experience. Also, they provide towels and that is apparently no longer the norm at most gyms. You get access to great classes and resources such as personal training and nutrition experts. And there’s a massage therapy professional in the same building! What more could you ask for?

D'John Moor

The Y makes me feel like I literally have an extended family of people who are there to help improve me physically and mentally and are always extremely polite and professional whenever I have an issue at the gym. Hands down the best gym I've ever been to.

Painted Paw Studio by Sarah Shearer

The downtown YMCA is fantastic- the equipment is regularly updated and the facility is clean, bright and open. The group fitness class schedule is pretty extensive and they often try new options, to keep it fresh. Love this place!

Karen Hassett

I love the downtown Y! The pool is amazing and caters to us sick lap swimmers. The women's locker room is spacious with towels to use keeping my gym bag lite.

Tyler The Diva

This facility is lovely, the staff are so friendly and helpful, everything is well maintained and cleaned, and the patrons that go to work out are respectful. It’s a joy to workout at this location!

Tina Jepson

I'm impressed with the facility. The locker rooms are clean and modern. The pool is a great size (and usually empty) and the Wellness Center is never even close to busy when I arrive (between 830 and 11 am). Y Play hours are reasonable and the care seems great for my 2 year old. I'm glad I joined this YMCA.

Chelsea Crandall

I just joined The Y recently, and it is a really wonderful facility. I would say most of the staff are warm and welcoming. There is rarely a wait time for equipment use. The locker room is large and has a sauna and steam room. My only complaint is, I didn't get a tour when I first signed up. This makes navigating the facility kind of difficult. Its a large building with many amenities, but I don’t know where half of them are unfortunately.

David Phan (Avalanche)

By far the best gym while I was visiting. Has all the equipments and machines you need to get a great workout not to mention the amenities to enjoy afterwards. Cheap day passes too along with professional staff. Definitely recommend this gym to anyone that's close to downtown or visiting Nashville.

Eric Braley

This is hands down the best YMCA I've been to. The building is obviously pretty old, but other than that this is a top notch facility. Reminds me of my University gym, all you're missing is a rock wall. Great to work into your routine if you're a downtown worker, you can even get your shoes shined here!

Debbie Plummer

My PCP referred me to this YMCA location for the St. Thomas Medical Partners Outpatient Rehabilitation & Physical Therapy department. I spoke to Ms. Lisa, the Secretary for this facility. She was very compassionate, knowledgeable & provided helpful information for me to get started with the process. She handled my insurance information on my behalf & upon my arrival for the 1st session, greeted me with a warm smile & welcome! I was assigned to Andy, The best therapist there. He was attentive, professional, polite & definitely helped me to feel so much better within 8 sessions! The environment is great, clean & well equipped for good & productive therapy sessions. It’s housed within the downtown YMCA. If you’re looking for a good physical therapy Team of caring & compassionate physical therapists & front office staff, consider this location. You’ll be glad you did & you’ll feel so much better as a result!

Joe Grice

Changing review from 1 to 5 after help from Courtney! The best customer service I have received, very sweet person. Hope she is the one of managers. Will be back to visit.

I Enjoy The Olympic Size Pool .. Many Other YMCAS Don't Offer This. Free Coffee & Tea For Only Customer's To Warm You Up For Workout. Steam Sauna & Dry Sauna .. No Whirlpool But Have Every Else. Parking Across Street And And Close To Bus Line. Children's Play Area With Supervisor While You Work Out. Does Accept Silver Sneakers Or Silver Fit. 😊 Oh, one more thing ... I've been doing a pattern in my workouts ... Rowing Machine 1st ... Cool down with 30 minutes of meditation in boxing yoga room ... Swimming for 30 Minutes ... I recently saw a doc ... and it was confirmed of severe injury from a hospital. He asked how are you still walking. My same reply. He advised a hip replacement surgery. My reply that's always the last alternative. I feel great because of YMCA. Thanks guy's!!

Logan Gray

Beautiful facility, great equipment, very clean and excellent location. *2019 update: still a great gym, still amazing staff, but after closing the bathrooms and locker rooms for weeks all they did was retile the shower area and install depressingly weak water pressure. You all just sold the building across the street for millions to build what will be the ugliest sky scraper in Nashville, you could at least use some of that money to keep the showers running well.

Romany Mohareb

Great place, i just hate that they close early in the weekends also the parking spot for the car is very small it barely fits, also this place is missing the hot tub 🥲 …

NL_ 64

Great experience from parking to cleaning up after a workout. Plenty of equipment to suit every goal and it was all clean and well maintained.

Tyler Samuel

The staff is super friendly, everything is well maintained, and the it’s a welcoming atmosphere!

false

Outstanding facility, clean, modern, well-designed, in a great location. The management and staff are friendly, professional, and responsive to feedback. The personal trainers are outstanding and the maintenance crew keep the equipment in working order. This Y is a great asset for Nashville.

Vik P

Excellent gym. Tonnes of equipment, spacious and even has a hack squat machine! Highly recommend

Heidi Suydam

Friendly staff! Parking was easy and the rooftop pool is great. This location also has raquetball and we love that!

Shaun Serafini

Stopped in here for a workout while on holidays. AMAZING FACILITY!! One of the best fitness centres I’ve been to. Lots of equipment that I haven’t seen. The hidden gem was the rooftop pool to grab some rays and relax as our hotel didn’t have a pool. If you need a break from Broadway and want to sweat out some of the sin, check in here for a workout!

Stephen Humble

Excellent facility with great staff, equipment and fitness classes. Rooftop pool also a plus. As a shift worker with irregular hours, my only wish is for longer (weekend) hours. Otherwise, it's everything I need in a gym.

Brooke Powell

This is the nicest Y in Nashville. It has a rooftop pool, complimentary towels, steam room, sauna, good classes and it’s clean. Parking is a little tricky if you don’t want to spring for their pay lot.

Ricardo Reyes

This gym has a lot. 2 pools, basketball court, 2 squat racks; 2 smith machines along with a lot of free weights and treadmills and elipticals. Staff is engaging and fun. Clean, even in the locker rooms. As any downtown location, parking isn't free. You can oak on the street and pay the meter or park in the parking garage. But if you park before 6:00 and after 18:00 the street is free, free all day on Sunday.

THUDore Michael

This place is my favorite workout spot. Love the energy and staff over there. Best of all, they have towels! Love the bible verses on walls and in basket at reception. Wish they brought the eucalyptus oil spray back to the steam room.

Valerie Phillips

The facility is awesome including equipment that stays in good shape or is repaired quickly. Movies were lame as they were mostly drama or bad comedy, but are getting more action. Employees are all very nice and helpful.

Dee Ann Walker

I swim 3-4 times a week & love the Downtown Y. The pool & dressing rooms & showers are spotless & I enjoy the ‘adult’ nature of this Y. It’s my kind of facility! Great job!

Justin Murray

This is the best Y in Nashville. Very spacious and tons of equipment. The parking situation isn't the best. Street parking is hard to get during rush hours and if you start around the time that the new year resolution people start then you might as well forget parking altogether. Other than that it's decent. One thing I would like this Y do better on is communication with its members. Once a year, they close down and do equipment maintenance, but they aren't great at getting that message out to members because every year members show up and get upset when turned away. Sending an email or something would be great and prevent people from wasting gas.

Corrie Hill

I've been to a lot of gyms in this town and the Ymca is so convenient with parking, the open space and lots of equipment!

C Zeh

Plenty of weights & machines resulting in very little time spent on waiting around.

Amy Carmichael

Best gym I have ever been to! We came here whilst visiting Nashville and it has the best facilities from gym to changing rooms and had an in and outdoor pool! Very flash! Highly recommend!

Joe First

As a racquetball enthusiast, I have never seen a facility as welcoming as this place. Eight courts and a great group of players of all levels. The facility had a complete makeover a few years back and has maintained it very well.

Ellen Britton

I workout regularly at several different Y branches, but the Downtown YMCA is my favorite: I value the diversity of fellow members, handsome expansive main workout space, towel service, convenient parking, friendly staff.

Janet Blakemore

Great atmosphere and very welcoming;. with an unpredictable schedule, it’s good to have a place where you can get a workout in. Staff is very helpful. I attend water aerobics with Trudy on Monday’s and Barbara on Wednesday’s and they are superb.

Michael Osborne

Took the POUND class with Deborah which was really good. Great cardio workout. Have also taken the Barre, BodyPump and Sculpt classes which were also good. There are a lot of choices for group exercise. Highly recommended.

Jason C

-Towel service. -Not really having to worry about people stealing my things-Central location-Diversity of the staff-Care for those in need (homeless, hungry, etc.)

Fielding Pierce

Got it all. I play raquetball and the faculties are excellent. Terry Davis is the Y pro. He has a small well stocked pro shop and does restringing. He also offers lessons that are very beneficial. Terry is very active and puts on regular leagues and tournaments. Highly recommended.

Kimberly Agee

I feel perfectly at home at the Downtown YMCA. I love the people there and the facilities are top-notch. I have made quality friends at the Downtown Y that encourage me and help me remain accountable in my journey.

Samuel Johnso

I've been there for years. Always so clean & friendly staff. It has everything you need. Best gym in town!

Tim Bradley

Great facility. Visited for first time in last week and several times since. Lucky to have two great locations (this one and Green Hills) so close to home. Great, friendly staff. Can't recommend highly enough.

Arjun Reddy

I joined this YMCA 2 months ago I don't know what magic it has I will keep going here..I don't like going other gyms.this gym has a very great ambience well equipped with all weights & machines to get ripped,but the only tough part for me is sometimes there is a little waiting time for squats&bench press machines😄.after your workout you can choose some chocolate drinks& variety of Teas at free of cost,I would specailly like to mention that staff was very well trained they use to keep y always as clean as possible....if you're reading this just join this Y.Trust me you will never miss one day being lazy😎

Stephanie Wallace

Really great gym just wish it stayed open later

John Reidy

Great facility with plenty of exercise equipment, friendly staff, workout and shower towels, Smoothie King on site and convenient location for those of us working downtown.

Jeremy Bradford

You see a lot of the same people and develop great relationships as for the most part we are all trying to better our lives. The fellowship and bettering of a person that takes place in the YMCA is second to none.

Vladimir Dolgov

Best GYM in Nashville. Good choice of groups in the morning and in the evening. Very friendly front desk and instructors.

Mary Alice B.

Beautiful facility; great parking; great staff and convenient hours. Best Y I have ever worked out at (over 30+ years)

Walter Nelson

This place is incredible. Great vibes, great equipment, good space. Sunsets from upstairs are also awesome, but it gets a pretty darn crowded on weekdays between 5 and 8pm.

Lavonda Groove

Your team members are the most courteous and kind that I have ever come across having been a member of many gyms in my life.

Dayton Alford

The staff is always cheerful and friendly, and the facility is always clean and well kept. I’ve worked out here for over 2 years and couldn’t be happier

The Y management has bent over backwards to encourage use of the handball/racquetball courts. Much appreciated.

Carmen Stinson

This Y is awesome everything is updated and it's a super nice facility. That being said sometimes it gets so packed that I can't even find a machine, or workout with out being in someone's way it's so annoying
